Hi Juan,
We do membership incentives for our sales associates, but we do not call them commissions. For every in-person membership sale, the associate gets $1.00. It's simple, straightforward, and an effective way for our front desk/welcome staff to want to promote membership. The Membership Coordinator and Marketing Director give updates at the frontline team staff meetings along with training about value propositions, upcoming exhibits, and member events to keep the "pitch" fresh.

Subject: Implementing commission based sales for Membership
Hi All!
I am looking for some guidance and insights from a mid-scale art museum that manages memberships of 5000 households and below, particularly regarding implementing commission-based sales for frontline staff for membership.
I am considering incorporating commission-based incentives to drive membership engagement and sales. I would greatly appreciate any advice or best practices from those with experience in this area. I am interested in learning about the practicalities, challenges, and successes associated with such an initiative and any considerations or pitfalls to be mindful of during implementation.
Any insights or experiences you can share would be immense as I explore this strategy for enhancing our membership program. Feel free to shoot me an email, and maybe we can schedule a 30-minute Zoom chat.
Thank you!
